Hello, my name is Bonnie, and I'm a momma dog rescued from a puppy mill. I'm so happy to be out of that cage, and free to run around! I love having a family! I am a bit of an attention hog. Actually, I Â’d love to have all the attention from my people! I'm good at nudging the other dogs out of the way, or jumping over them If necessary. I'm also a very pretty girl, and rather small at just a bit over twelve pounds. I believe in living life to the fullest, and being afraid would keep me from that, so I refuse to be afraid of anything (except thunder).
I love attention so much, and I really don't care who gives it to me. I never meet a stranger that I don't love if given the chance (I even like everyone at the vet‘s office!). I'll climb on anyone’s knee for a pet or hug. I give a kiss now & then, but havenÂ’t started doing a lot of that yet. Give me time, and I'll probably be kissing anyone who’ll let me!
I'm not housebroken yet. Mom thinks I'm a bit slow on the uptake. I keep telling her It is because I have those little seizures or muscle cramps. She gives me Phenobarbital twice a day, and that helps me. The vet says I have some minor liver damage, and that's why I need to take meds daily for the time being, and need to be checked every six months. I'll get the hang of that potty training routine yet!
Hello, my name is Lily! I love getting attention, but am very cautious and shy about accepting it. I'll sit on mom's lap for a long time if she picks me up, but I'm afraid to make the initial contact. Now, when it storms, I am not the least bit shy about getting as close to mom as I can get cause I'm really afraid of that thunder and lightening.
I'm a middle sized Bichon, and weigh about 16.5 pounds.. I'm doing great on the house training part, and hope to be out of the diapers real soon. I love the fenced back yard. We have a lot of fun playing chase. I love to watch the other bichons play tug, but haven't gotten up enough nerve to join in yet.
I'm looking forward to getting a forever home, and finally having a real home of my own. I'll learn to love you if you give me a chance. I'll be a beautiful girl once my hair is grown out & I get a really good grooming. I'd like a home with someone home most of the time.
